A new protocol-level feature allows peers to transfer stablecoin on Sui without requiring users to handle SUI, leaving the current stablecoin transfer fee of $0.00.
Suiwhere money flows as freely as messages, today announced the launch of gasless stablecoin transfers, a new protocol-level feature that enables users and businesses to transfer Sui-backed stablecoins without paying gas fees or managing a separate SUI token. With the feature now available for validators, the stablecoin exchange fee is $0.00 on the Sui network.
With live support from the major stablecoins, including USDsui, suiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY, this feature is designed to reduce transaction costs and eliminate one of the main obstacles to the adoption of stablecoin mass: the need to have a separate token to complete a transaction.
FireworksThe business platform, which is raking in more than $14 trillion in digital asset sales, has incorporated this new pre-launch strategy as part of Sui’s growing payment portfolio. In addition, many institutional managers and trading-facing wallets will support airless transactions at launch, enabling users to send selected stablecoins without holding or using SUI for payments.
“Stablecoins are becoming a major part of the global economy, but the infrastructure around them still creates unnecessary complexity,” said Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and CPO of Mysten Labs, the founder of Sui. “From the beginning, we’ve said that it shouldn’t cost people money to transfer their money. With the gasless stablecoin transfer, we’re one step closer to making Sui a global payment rail, whether it’s for businesses, AI agents, or consumers.”
Fireblocks support also promotes the presence of Sui’s payment institutions by enabling businesses and financial service providers to access and manage stablecoin transactions on the network through trusted digital assets.
“The future of payments will run on the rails of stablecoins, but institutional transactions still need to catch up,” said Ran Goldi, SVP Payments & Network at Fireblocks. “Sui is a successful, gasless stablecoin transfer that removes the biggest friction for onchain businesses and the customer experience.”
The Gasless stablecoin transfer represents a structural change in the way peer-to-peer transfers work on the Sui Mainnet and is not a service, support program, or temporary promotion. In a competitive market where margins are everything, the launch positions Sui as a sustainable stablecoin foundation for businesses looking to reduce complexity and high cost, merchants who are tired of failure to pay back or fee disputes, and AI agents, who will in fairness choose a low-cost way to reduce resistance to independent payments.
As of August 2025, Sui has surpassed $1 trillion in stablecoin exchange value, while its stablecoin ecosystem has continued to grow rapidly among institutions, vendors, and developers. Sui’s streamlined design and product architecture allow the network to support frequent and predictable payment services at a low cost, making it suitable for emerging payment programs, marketing campaigns, and enterprise financial systems.
These innovations work by significantly reducing operating costs, and the gasless stablecoin transfer builds on that foundation to completely eliminate gas management costs and financial instability. As a result, it is easier to work for organizations, and it is a more efficient and cost-effective way to make sales and independent systems work. Free transfers mean that gas fees don’t compete with or exceed the cost of the payment, making micropayments work at any level.
The recent boom in the Sui ecosystem reflects the rise of stablecoin-based financial and payment systems. In 2026 alone, four SUI devices sold from 21Shares, Grayscale, and Canary Capital were launched globally, expanding access to the Sui ecosystem. At the same time, the efforts of the marquee stablecoin, including the Bridge-Sui Dollar (USDSui) offered by the Athena eSui Dollar (SuiUSDe), will continue to expand the Sui digital dollar ecosystem and strengthen its position as the foundation of the Internet economy.
Gasless stablecoin transfers are now live on the Sui Mainnet. To learn more about payments on Sui, visit https://www.sui.io/payments.
